Actually from street scene it’s a bit hard to tell what’s coming from where and how huge, then where to run to, a lot of dust, smoke and things blocking 🤔

My friend went there but he is Nepalese in Nepal right now. He did say some of the people were foolish cos they don’t know how to run once u see people running u still stand there…

he was affected by an earthquake dunno how many years ago he say even though he know his house is safe once the ground shook he ran out of the house. No such thing as checking for evidence first that house is unsafe before running out (yes he is also in the healthcare profession and we believe in evidence based research)

China side is uphill, in restricted area, hence few people.

Nepal side is downhill, unrestricted, and has more tourists and villagers.
Upstream dam gave way then downstream jialat... I saw a video of the dam releasing water... is a lot of water one shot..
